Statistics suggest the majority of Japanese men in their twenties no longer have any expectation of spending a romantic Christmas Eve having sex with their girlfriend, as has historically been the Japanese custom.
The survey on attitudes to Christmas, based on a sample of unmarried Japanese men and women in their twenties, reaffirmed two significant facts – that, bizarrely, the Japanese Christmas lacks the traditional Christmas spirit of high retail sales, having instead become a dating event in which couples get together for sleazy love hotel sex, and that young Japanese men in particular are now apparently doomed to sexlessness.
Asked whether they had a partner, 64.6% in total said they did not – 72.6% for men, but only 56.7% for women. Whether women are dating older and wealthier men, or younger men are simply totally lacking in drive, libido or money, is still the subject of much speculation.
Over 40% of those without partners reported that they intended to spend Christmas with family, and nearly 20% anticipated a lonely Christmas at home on their own.
As to where in fact they would be spending their Christmas if they did have a lover, some 21.5% expected to stay at home, whilst 23.2% expected to spend it at their partner’s home. A further 21.5% intended to go to a restaurant, and 11.3% to an illumination show.
The other major difference the statistics revealed was with respect to Christmas presents (meaning gifts for lovers rather than mere family) – men on average expected to spend significantly more on presents than women, to the tune of ¥20,514 for men and a miserly ¥12,935 for women.
28.2% intended this gift to be compromised of “accessories,” 11.7% clothing, 11.7% wallets or purses and 11% bags, making the majority of gifts fashion-related.
However, a thoughtful 4.3% did consider games an appropriate gift, along with similarly small proportions for perfume, flowers, make-up, watches, interior goods, home electronics, and travel.
A cheeky 12.9% seemed not to have grasped the true meaning of Christmas, responding that they would only be giving a worthless gift of “love” to their paramour.

Christmas is a day that should be spent with your loved ones, no matter who or what they are. Let us not judge by gender, race, appearance or physical form as we Otaku celebrate the most joyous of occasions with our beautiful and beloved 2D waifus and 3D dolls and figures.
In Japan, you spend Christmas trying to get laid, and New Years with your family. In the USA, you spend Christmas with your family, and New Years trying to get laid.
Xmas in japan should like this,
you must laugh hard after saw Hyadain singing something about christmas.

Ok, that was funny!
GOOD FIND Dinomagic!

Wait... could I not just try to spend most days with my loved ones? Can I not randomly visit them or spend time with them? What's so joyous about a religious holiday that lost most of its original meaning?
For you, maybe. For me it's just 25th December.
Atheists don't have any loved one. They have no reason to thank anyone, and are most likely to kill themselves over their Ronery.
Atheists get to have way more fun without the hangups thx. Now go kill yourself christard, you will get to see your gawd sooner.
@kajunbowser Rules of engagement say it's not aggression if you aren't the one starting it. Although replying hate with hate isn't advisable for an serious arguing, people like our Christianity-driven fella won't listen to reason. So your statement is invalid.
Religious fanatics and butthurt atheists: giving entertainment to those who doesn't give a s*** since the dawn of internet.
Seriously, have a compromise and have fun together this christmas. Tsundere action for everyone.
Why are athiests bigger fucking assholes than Christians?
Athiests can be hypocritical as much as anyone lol.
Intolerant much?
christard DETECTED
That's right, and no one wanna make sound cool something as a christian fundamentalist who believes atheism is the root of all evil
adding tard to the end of everything doesn't make it sound cool. tardtard
He has added "-ard".
believe me, nobody wanna make sound cool something as a fundamentalist christian who believes that atheism is the root of all evils
I hate hypocrisy. That's why I turned atheist.

I love hypocrisy, its an awesome band

Why are you so much full of win?
Atheists are the biggest hypocrites on the planet, frequently insulting, belittling, and forcing their thoughts on others. The comments above are a perfect example.
Atheism: Disbelief in gods or deities. Nowhere in that definition does it say atheists are ungrateful cuntbags.
Oh but they can be.
And most pretty much are.
a christard D: euw

Who needs sex when I have my waifu?
or a dakimakura.
Assisted masturbating?
Is this what you mean ?

@TFish: "Who needs sex when I have my waifu?"
your comment made me remember this video
Elf Fan Boy - Rocko's Modern Life [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lwHPNea0aY]
conversation on /a/.
i always spend that time of the year with my family so i'm kind of relieved there is no sex involved...
"kind of?"
So you don't have any cute cousins? (the non-related kind, such as the "stepdaughter of your uncle".... sigh, I've been reading too much hentai.
>too much hentai
there is no such thing, what are you even saying
also about the hot cousins, that's what the "kind of" is for
Agreed. I'm always visiting family during Christmas. Usually I end up sleeping in a child-sized bed, or in a room with 3 other people. There's not enough privacy for sex when large families get together for Christmas. Even the married couples can't have sex.
@ Anon 23:44 18/12/2011:
Tell your family that even though it's late, you and your wife/GF/whatever are going out to bring back some ice cream. You know it's late, and many stores will be closed, but that *eventually* you will find one open.
Head to a love hotel. Problem solved.
(Don't forget the ice cream.)
"Onii-chan, kore wa..."
"Onee-chan, shizuka ni. Skinship da yo..."
How can they both refer to each other as the elder sibling?
It's two separate quotes anon, not one conversation.
USB Onacon
Majority of women still lacking X-mas dates.
The men outnumber, but just share a woman for Christmas, cuddle her twice as much. Problem solved.
i will spend it with my Mugi-chan. 3D can fuck off.
People that say 2D is better than 3D clearly never had a girlfriend... a real one atleast.
I've had boyfriends. They were creeps. I'll stick to my perfect princely boy characters thank you. <3
People that say 3D is better than 2D clearly never had a 2D girlfriend... a real one at least.
Did you first meet your boyfriends here on SanCom?
There could be a correlation ...
Everyone knows 2D boys are better than 3D boys. Not even a contest.
Had one. . .still sticking to 2D
I've not only had girlfriends (sexually only 5), I have a 5-year-old son. And I still say 2D girls and an onahole are FAR better than a 3D girl. Especially when you have a nice, QUITE Dakimakura to curl up with at night.
Doesn't matter had sex
We don't need one either. Go enjoy listening to the bitching
People that say there's no such thing as unhappiness and depression for having worthless 3D girlfriend clearly never met/know any real girl before.
Hmm, I had girlfriends before, it's just that I don't think it's all that necessary.
I mean, yes of course, the sex is nice and if you aren't just doing it for that, the time spend together as well, but the amount of effort needed to actually obtain and keep that makes me feel like it's not worth it.
The standards that people set for their partners reached a point where I gave up somewhere along the road.
If they ever plan to remove those insane standards I /might/ return to 3D again, but for now, someone else can take my place.
I'll stick to 2D.
You're wrong at this point, girl's todays are sluts and attention whores, they care for no one but their own desire, Every girl is taught men out there a wolfs when they're young, but not every boy is taught women out there are heart breakers. That is the fact or women in society today, they're just bunch of predators in for the sex and gold. Men are nothing more than implacable toy. They can easily dump you when they're bored and look for their so called "better man". Truth is, it's not the man who's bad, it's their greed and lack of appreciation of what they already have that causes all the chaos. 2 heart-breakers is more than enough to kill me emotions, i'll spend my Christmas with my cat who's always been loyal to me for 6years
a cat is fine too :3
What is girlfriend?
Waifus are red,
Girlfriends are blue,
But enough talk,
HAVE AT YOU!
*Things guys say they are on their way to becoming a wizard.*
YOUR WORDS ARE AS EMPTY AS YOUR LOVELIFE!
A mythical creature.
YOUR WORDS ARE AS EMPTY AS YOUR LOVELIFE! MANKIND ILL NEEDS A LOVER SUCH AS YOU!
An ona-hole !
sankaku ill needs a poster such as you. die troll, you don't belong in this site.
I almost had one in highschool but I didnt get interested more on the idea.
So? More for You.
People who say that 3D is better than 2D clearly never had a girlfriend... a 2D waifu one at least.
Your point is?
I agree with the drivelling anon, actually having a girlfriend definetly beats staring at hentai all night. Or, if you're even luckier, like I am, that girlfriend also stares at hentai. It is especially lonely to spend christmas staring at hentai. *waits for the down votes*
I will add to the subject tho, that 2d girls do have advantages that real ones dont, like customizeability. and cheapness.
You stare at hentai all night? That's not what you are supposed to do with it.
Let them fap to their drawings, anon. Opens the market up that much more.
I always thought the whole romantic aspect to xmas in Japan was a bit weird, but maybe that's going to go away at this rate. I did swap xmas presents with a girl in Japan without knowing the significance before, along with checking off basically every other trope of Japanese romance that doesn't translate to Americans. Kinda funny how that worked out.
